Having visited Lourdes in my youth, I can attest that the Protestants have nothing on the Romanists when it comes to superstition and ignorance (and making big bucks on the same!).

There are many existing, public, scientifically-verified miracles associated with the Catholic Church, yet nothing comparable associated with Protestantism.

This could explain the hostility that some non-Catholics have toward Christ's miracles, regardless of their knowledge of the facts.

“Hostility,” indeed. We are quite familiar with and greatly love Christ’s miracles that are attested to in the pages of Scripture.

None of the events or phenomena listed in your list of “miracles” are supported by Scriptures, so I am under no compunction to believe them.

Actually, I am skeptical of most of them, and generally find them a distraction from the Gospel.

The Tilma of San Diego, for example, is not going to get anyone into heaven... sorry to break it to you.

Are you actually playing the, "God-loves-Catholics-more-than-Protestants, ha-ha!" game?

That's quite childish.

Who exactly is validating these deceptions and demonic parlor tricks as, quote, "Christ's miracles"? To what end may I ask?

A Catholic friend of mine swore up and down that he and his two sisters watched together in awe (or horror) as the lips of "Mary" were moving. IN A PAINTING. This occurred at the home of a friend of his in Marlboro, NJ some years ago at what had already became the site of an outdoor "Marian Shrine".

What explains the Catholic hostility to the first eleven chapters of Genesis?

Here is the testimony of a healing in a Evangelical church, the Christian and Missionary Alliance.

God can heal through prayer for those who come to Him in simple faith, without the brouhaha.
